Bush: 'slowly but surely' dismantling al-Qaida

President George Bush said the US is “slowly but surely” dismantling al-Qaida despite a wave of attacks linked to the terrorist group.

“This is still a dangerous world we live in, and clearly the attack in Saudi Arabia means we have to be alert here at home,” Bush said at a joint White House news conference with Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
